2024 Lincoln Nautilus

The back rear seat WINDOW on the left-hand side spontaneously exploded while driving around 60 mph on the highway on the morning (10:30 AM ET) of October 7, 2025. All of the pieces blew into the car. There was a loud boom when the window imploded. Had this happened on the driver's window, I would have wrecked. As loud as the window explosion was, I felt as though my ear drums busted. I had to get off the highway as soon as safely possible and pulled into a parking lot to check the damage. That's when I took these pictures. I took it to the Lincoln Dealer directly. There were no warning lights or other noises before the window exploded. There were no cars directly near me.

The issue is with blue tooth phone calls. There is always excessive static while driving for the other person on the phone to the point were is is extremely difficult if not impossible to have any sort of conversation. Inside the vehicle it sounds clear, its the person on the other end that's having this issue and its consistent . All phone types are having this issue. I purchased this car brand new for my wife 10/24 and to not have a standard feature like blue tooth calling not working is unacceptable . In my opinion not being able to utilize hands free calling is a safety issue. It's been to the service dept. at the dealership twice and they can't fix it.

More than once while driving, the 48inch dashboard screen and the center touch screen, and power steering and the majority of electrical components would cease to work at all once and without warning. Essentially, the car goes "dark" like a computer that had its power cord pulled from the wall. Twice I had to come to a stop, with minimal ability to steer (no power). Eventually, after about 60 to 90 seconds, the screens rebooted slowly and regular functionality was restored after about another 60 to 90 seconds. This is not the same screen sequence as when you enter your car. Service at the dealership told me there are "various software issues with this new technology, as well as suspension, battery and severe electrical issues, many of which are posted recalls, and others are recalls pending or they have paused fixing until they can deliver new fixes, since previous fixes failed". I took my 24 Nautilus (ICE not hybrid) in for recalls on the suspension and it "going dark" while driving. I was told, and my service records include notes from the tech that also state this, that other customers are experiencing the same issues, and to expect more recalls. “This vehicle has been a nightmare”. Approximately 2 months later I was while driving down a highway exit ramp approaching a crossing city road, the vehicle again "went black". No lights or screen presence or indicators could be seen – no speedometer, no steering, no safety features such as emergency brake assist or lane assist activated. Zero control of the car. I recall screaming "I have no control! OMG!" My car hit a curb, then guard rail, then flipped and rolled, totaled the car. The driver and passenger front airbags did not deploy, the curtain bags did. I suffered minor injuries but luckily no major ones. I got the car because of all the safety features for my wife and kids. But I'll never buy another after seeing the car lose all power and control three times, the third flipping and rolling uncontrolled.
